Design Refuge Challenge - This is Me

As you may have noticed from that button on the right there somewhere, I am a member of Design Refuge - a fantastic forum for design bloggers of all flavours.

This month, Dagny has challenged us to explain a little bit more about our style.

In many ways, this is something I still struggle with - I've always been notoriously indecisive. I love all white interiors, and yet my home is full of deep reds and pale blues. I love modern design and clean lines, and yet I also hanker after antique chic. In many ways that's why I started this blog - to explore different facets of my personality and try and hone in on what I really think I could live with.

Most of all, however, I love an eclectic mix - something that fuses a white background with pops of colour, and mixes old and new. It's no coincidence that the images below (bar one) are from Living Etc magazine, as I think it probably best encapsulates this style. I'd love to say all of these were pictures were of my house; sadly only one is - the thing they do however have in common with it is that they are all period houses like ours. Maybe one day we'll get ours looking this some of these!
